I was a little concerned when I heard them talk about an "interactive" cli, I just want to push one button to transpile deploy etc..

I think @Albert Margarit (NS Eng Lead) has said that everything will be controllable through command line switches, with interactive features totally optional
a
That’s correct
NodeJS CLI features: interactive and non-interactive, command extensions (onBeforeExecution, onCompletion, onFailure), configurable project folder (overridable per command), setup account configuration per project (in the plans to support multiple accounts)

how does the team feel working with NodeJS rather than Java?
happy, sad, indifferent?
a
Very happy!
The team works in both languages actually. We will continue working on IDE plug-ins in Java
s
and I think you mentioned you're using Javascript not TypeScript or other compile-to-js language?
in any case, always interesting to hear what people think of JS, especially coming from other languages
a
We are using JS but moving to TS soon. We love JS, it’s great (if used responsibly 😂)
s
I think of TS as a dose of responsibility 🙂
a
Agreed!
